  1. Solids Waste Water Treatment • Plastics, Metals, sand, clay • wood, Plant mater etc • Biodegradable organics Material to be removed: • Carbohydrates, fat, protein, • Petrolium proucts • Other organics • Recalcitrants • Heavy Metals

  2. Treatment Process • Primary Treatment • Physical • Secondary Treatment • Biological • Tertiary treatment • Chemical

  3. Melbourne Sewage System Western Treatment plant Eastern treatment Plant Regional treatment plans

  4. Eastern Treatment plant • Primary Treatment • Sludge • Grass Filtration • Land Filtration • Lagooning • Aerobic • Facultative

  5. Primary Treatment • Removes undissolved material and 70% of B.O.D. and includes: • Screening • Filtration • Sedimentation • Floatation • Product is “primary sludge”

  6. Floatation Screens
